Recommended Strategies[]

DarkLordBattle

Bring mana controlling heroes such as Chao, Li Xiu or LeonidasTime Stops will also help, as does stacking multiple Holy heroesAntidotes are also useful in cleansing lingering damage over time effects from each of their special skills.

While it is possible to win the fight with just 3* heroes, it is challenging enough that well-leveled 4* heroes is recommended.

The Dark Lord's special, Deathstrike, is what makes this fight so dangerous and difficult.  As such, one should avoid awarding him mana through judicious tile matching, focusing efforts on killing the two Doomed Lords first, then using those lanes to ghost tiles, killing the Dark Lord via heroes' specials rather than tiles.

An ideal team would include heroes like Kiril, Li Xiu, and Chao.  Here's a full list of Mana Reducers who can assist in enemy mana manipulation.
